It would probably be a good idea to have some food storage that doesn't require cooking, if you have an electric stove. Otherwise invest in a portable gas grill of some kind so that you can still cook. I know I wouldn't have too many options if my power went out tonight. I'd be stuck eating canned peaches and dry ramen noodles. Oh wait, I don't buy ramen noodles. Canned peaches it is.
